A book which should be read by all to help explain the impact of technologies on all lives and how to negotiate this current information crisis.
There have been in history three major information crises, which have profoundly affected the lives of all living in that and future epochs: The invention of Cuneiform writing 5000 years ago; the invention of Gutenberg printing press 1440; and the current digital communication technology era. All three of these evolutions have profoundly changed the course of history.
It is always hoped major discoveries will benefit the world. This is not always the case, and this book endeavours to guide people through the maze of technology, confusion, misinformation and the sheer overwhelming impact of the current technological revolution in a way as to be readily understood.
